Registration for The Colony Shoreline Trail 5K (TC Shoreline Run), previously known as The Colony Half Marathon and Green Dragon Five Miler, is now open. Join us this year to run through the beautiful Shoreline Trail in The Colony, Texas, at 7:30 a.m. on Saturday, October 19, 2024. It’s a flat course, great scenery, even better weather and free post-run beer! Proceeds benefit UT Southwestern to support cancer research. About 60 percent of this race will take place on The Colony's Shoreline Trail, a crushed granite trail that overlooks the beautiful Lake Lewisville.
The TC Shoreline Run is a 5K (3.1 miles) race taking place in The Colony, Texas, a suburb north of Dallas. This volunteer-led event brings in nearly 1,000 runners each year, and proceeds benefit UT Southwestern, to researching and finding a cure for cancer. More than 60 percent of the 3.1-mile course runs along The Colony Shoreline Trail on beautiful Lake Lewisville. Runners will enjoy a gently undulating, crushed granite trail in a picturesque and natural setting that promises a memorable race experience for all.
We will offer several water stops throughout the course to ensure you’re hydrated. Runners will also receive a classic cotton tee shirt and participant medal commemorating the race.
Packet Pickup will be Friday, October 18 at The Colony Recreation Center from 11:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. The address is 5151 North Colony Boulevard, The Colony, Texas, 75056. Packet pickup will also be available on race day starting at 6:00 a.m. until 7:15 a.m.
If you're traveling for our race, we highly recommend staying at one of three hotels in The Cascades, located just a few miles from the race site. Choose from Residence Inn, Courtyard or Fairfield Inn, all by Marriott.
